2016 Small Fry: by Jen Mcintosh

This is the list of books that Mrs. Rattner would like for this year. You can purchase these books yourself and it will automatically be shipped to CES. You can buy these books at any time throughout the year and we’ll announce it at select morning assemblies.

Tommasina Tango Thomas will be handling this month’s assembly (next week). If you have any books you would like by then, let us know and we’ll take care of it ASAP.

If you don’t like to use your credit card online, please send me a message with the book you would like and we’ll work out the purchase.

If your family owns a book store and you can get books at a discount and would rather purchase that way, that’s ok too! Just let me know so I can remove books from the Wishlist.

Please note: However you decide to purchase the books, you’ll need to send me an email (jenmcintosh@gmail.com) letting me know what you would like on the label inside the book: your child’s name, who the book is from, and any special message (For kindergarten, birthday, etc). Please also tell me your child’s teacher so we can make sure your child is able to check out the book first.

If you have any suggestions or comments, send them my way! I would like to make this as easy as possible for everyone involved.
